Hi @uri, you forgot to start app check out https://github.com/igas/faker#usage TL;DR in your iex session you can run Faker.start
from faker.
Not very clear from docs, it will be nice to have an example on a separate line.

@jonchoukroun Just a thought, but did you try adding Faker.start
at the top of your seeds file?

@denispeplin @uri PR is welcome. I tried to clarify this few times, but issues like this still happen.

Hi @igas I know you closed this issue, but I can't find the solution to this anywhere. How can I start the faker app in priv/repo/seeds.exs? I'm happy to write a PR with additional documentation if I figure it out.

@tobyhinloopen thanks for the advice, but that didn't work. I did solve it, though, by adding
import Faker
then calling it as if it had been aliased, like so:
username: Faker.Internet.username
@igas, I would be happy to make a PR for readme, maybe to add an example for using Faker in seeds.exs. Let me know if that's helpful.
Thanks for the help.

@jonchoukroun I tried to da import Faker
as you recommended but I get this error: module Faker is not loaded and could not be found
from faker.
@dokicro are you running import Faker
in an iex
session?
from faker.
@dokicro You have to include Faker
in your dependencies. Inside mix.exs
in your application's root, find the private function deps/0
which returns a list of tuples. You'll want to include Faker as one of those, then run mix deps.get
at the command line.
Inside /priv/repo/seeds.exs
you'll add import Faker
and that lets you call it as Faker.Internet.user_name
. Hope this helps.
